I’m a curious guy.

I’ve been employed as a graphic designer, a coder, an artist, and a director. I’m not any of these things. I’m just naturally curious—and ultimately that’s what I get paid for. Currently I make things for Google Creative Lab. I learned to program computers at an early age but studied art instead, earning my BFA in Communication Design from the University of Connecticut and later my MFA in Graphic Design from Yale University.

I also have an interest in writing though I haven’t much (yet). It’s Nice That asked me to submit something for their inaugural issue so I wrote about Frank Drake’s 1974 Arecibo Message to aliens. Do you have any idea how crazy it would be to get a phone call from aliens? Is our universe really just one blip in the multiverse? Can kittens perform quantum computation? Am I really here now or am I much older and this is but a memory I’m revisiting whilst sundowning? I have trouble sleeping sometimes.
